  • Publication number: 20240294317
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a flapper system and a flapper system kit that is compatible with both 2? and 3? flush valve seats. In some embodiments, the flapper system is configured to enable a user to select either a 2? or 3? flush valve seal for the flapper system. In some embodiments, the flapper system includes a pivot that enables sealing of a flat flush valve seat or an angled flush valve seat. In some embodiments, the flapper system includes one or more adjustable window assemblies that control a fluid flowrate within an internal portion of the flapper system to control buoyancy. In some embodiments, the flapper system includes a packaging system that includes an external portion of an interior packaging that extends outside of a structural packaging resulting in a greater display area.

  • Publication number: 20240028991
    Abstract: Improved software technology and techniques for enabling creation and management of a customized work breakdown structure (“WBS”) for a specific project may comprise various phases. For instance, a first phase may involve defining an organization-level WBS comprising a first set of customized, multi-dimensional WBS codes that serve as a starting point for the WBS codes to use for projects being handled by the organization, a second phase may involve defining a project-level WBS comprising a second set of customized, multi-dimensional WBS codes to use for a particular project being handled by the organization, and a third phase may involve using the defined project-level WBS to manage certain aspects of the particular project. Further, access to customize WBS variables may be regulated based on user access permissions information indicated by an organization and/or project-level WBS.

  • Patent number: 8239919
    Abstract: An optic module is disclosed having a memory configured to store data. To selectively control access to the memory and data stored in memory, a method and apparatus for memory access control is provided which creates access levels. The access levels include associated passwords, and read/write capability control, and address access range. During use a technician or other party would enter a password via an interface and the entered password is compared to the password associated with each access level. If a match is not found, then access to the memory, a hence data within the memory is denied. If a match is found the technician gains access to the data stored in the memory address range associated with the access level. Read and write access may also be granted or denied.

  • Patent number: 7721012
    Abstract: An optic module is disclosed having a shared bus interface, a transmit disable line, a memory and control logic or a processor configured to facilitate address modification via a bus shared by multiple optic modules. A single housing may contain multiple modules, all of which are preferably accessible via a shared host via a shared bus. Standard compliant modules share a common address, which inhibits communication with only a particular optic module, via the shared bus, in a housing containing multiple optic modules. Using a common message to all modules to treat a transmit disable line as a module select line, a single module may be active during an address re-write operation. This process may repeat until all the modules within the housing have unique addresses.

  • Patent number: 5539990
    Abstract: An optical levelling, plumbing and angle-calibrating instrument includes: a frame; a plumb body universally pendulously mounted on the frame and defining a vertical plumb line gravitationally; at least an illuminator electrically connected to a power supply and mounted on the plumb body for emitting laser light; and at least a cylindrical-surfaced lens mounted on the plumb body in front of the illuminator for planarly diverging the laser light as emitted from the illuminator through the lens to form a laser light plane transverse to a lens axis of the cylindrical-surfaced lens, whereby the laser light plane will projectively intersect an objective wall to form a straight line of optical image, serving as a reference line for levelling or plumbing use.
